2018 marks the end of the centenary of the First World War.
100 years since the end of the First World War, a conflict that involved over 100 countries from different continents and had an impact on lives of millions of people. One hundred years later, the Alliance Française and its partners will commemorate this significant milestone in world history and shine a light on the legacy of this war.

This centenary is to be marked by a program of screenings, exhibition and lectures taking place throughout November 2018 in the Alliance Française as well as outdoors.

Where do the images from WWI that haunt our imagination come from? To actually see the war, not only tell it, but show it and personnify it : that is what comic books is doing today. Through archives and history, the authors we meet in that documentary talk with the depth of time. They resuscitate First World War in our imagination : their drawing are more than lines. The First World War has become their main subject for their graphic novels. Following them, we will sketch the fragmented memory of drawing chronicle of 14-18.
